My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Thanks Darlene, I missed your comment the first time around...

    Funny you should mention that shaved...for many years I always thought growing Orchids was very difficult...mostly due to the fact that the few I was given throughout the (many) years I always manage to kill...and never had I ever had any orchid live long enough to re-bloom,lol...until this time around. NeedIess to say its very exciting for me!

    Thank you for the links Arthurm...I will check them out.

    Here's a Cattleya (pretty sure) by some memebers here ID for me... bloomed a few weeks ago

    and still has a couple blooms left today...

    This was taken a few weeks back...
